I'm really shy too...so I've never even looked for a playgroup before. I'm not sure if we have any in our area or not.

Not really a play group, but we go to the Little Gym. Love it, it is so much fun for Harlow and I get to talk to other moms.

I joined one a few months ago out of sheer desperation for some adult interaction. I am socially awkward as well but my loneliness overrode my shyness. I found it by looking at ads at a local children's consignment shop.

That's funny, I'm pretty shy too, at least around people I don't know very well, but I am so desperate for adult interaction during the day, especially with other moms, that I find myself going out of my way to strike up conversations, etc.!!

I don't have an official playgroup anymore as my son's ASD group was disbanded. But I do drop my kids off in the gym kids club and there are always kids there .

I joined a MOMs club near me, but to be honest, it's too much drama for me.... I've only gone to a handful of events, but the emails that go out get a little OOC.... so I've been avoiding it

After reading this I checked online, and there is none in my area for me. There is several, but they are for non-english speaking moms. And since the extent of my Spanish is counting to 15, and "More Beer, Please" I don't think I will be welcome.

I found two on meetup.com but the closest one isn't quite active(boring) and the other is a hour drive from here too much gas. I thought about making one for my town. Start it up on facebook and invite friends with babies. Its an idea i wish i had time to put into effect.
